Hi Craig,
I'm being treated mostly for bipolar and ADD. I also have some other things, trichotillomania, and then anxiety, OCD, eating disorders and hyperchondria in the past.Craig, I wouldn't worry that much because many symptoms overlap different disorders. I have also been very paranoid in the past, but don't really know why or to which disorder it was due to.
Anti-depressants can take the brakes off--as Cam W told me--bipolar disorder. And cycling can begin or increase.
If you haven't taken ADs and believe you are bipolar, I would be very hesitant to do them. If you have taken them, I'd look for cycling moods.
Hope I've helped at all Craig,
Feel free to ask me anymore questions,
Your friend in paranoia,
Janice
